oh ----, my bad.

how about a DIY screen? theyre just as expensive to buy as the gd projectors

what kind of material would you use?

MAJORAHOLE

ive read that you can use just about anything flat, plywood, drywall what ever.
there is a type of paint you cannuse that is supposedly made for those diy screens.
i forget where i read all this ----, but they list the brand of paint, and the mixtures you need. they also recommend certain types of boarder felt.
it may have been lumen lab that had the info

Blundar uses a cheap Epson projector on an orange stucco wall. Admittedly it probably still has a little more contrast than a DIY unit (not much tho it was dated) but I was impressed.

Bumping this for relavance to my interests. The 37" is looking a bit dated.

1080p ftw

Eh I hope you didn't mean the projector was 1080p, because it's 720p, and it's refurbed, but not a bad deal by any means.

You can use a wall for a screen, make a DIY one, or just put up some good paint on the wall. Hell, you can even buy chinaman screens on ebay for pretty cheap.

damn youre right

You're going it all wrong....
1) Break into a university trailer, many are unlocked
2) Steal the projector
I've seen a lot of vulnerable projectors at my school. If anyone really wanted to they could swipe one easily.

Well I have a 60" Pioneer Kuro PDP-6020FD. Too this point I have not come across anything that is commercially available that comes even close to it. That being said if I were in the market for projector I would probably pic up a JVC RS1 (1080P), or if I had a ton of cash just laying around a Yahmaha DPX-1300(720P)
